Lense Color
 

Does Lense color really matter? I ask because of all the different color lenses most companies offer now.

Sure it does. Different lens colors and tints perform better in different conditions. For example, a dark rose colored lens is great for bright bluebird days, but will be a bad choice on an overcast flat light day because it'll wash out the details of the terrain.

yes they do. i don't think there is a huge difference from most of the colors but if u have a darker lense and its snowing and overcast your gonna have trouble seeing what u are riding on. same with a clear lense in the sun, they work but you would want a darker lense. take a look at smith i/o goggles. they come with two lenses and can be changed in under 20 sec. u can find them on ebay for $90.

Thanks guys!

Lens color doesn't matter when its puking.

If I was to buy a set of goggles with one lens, what would be the optimal colour lens to get?

The more bright days the darker the lense you would get, but best would be something in the middle in an orange or light brown. Oakley persimmon is a good example.

Something amber (like the Oakley Persimmon/High Intensity Persimmon) is a pretty good all-around lens.

I really enjoy my rose tint for all around lenses.

I'm looking at a pair of goggles that come with "foundation/sensor mirror" lenses. What conditions will these be good for? will they work for night riding too or will i need a different lens. What is better for night riding, yellow or clear?
